30 Production of hydrogen for upgrading of heavy oil: Senior design project--Spring 20092009-04-22oil supply; conventional oil sources; unconventional oil sources; oil shale; synthetic crude production; shale oilAn important technical hurdle to the production of oil from abundant oil shale resources is how to create enough hydrogen for upgrading the heavy oils produced from the shale prior to transport through pipelines. In order to avoid clogging pipelines during transport roughly 350scm (standard cubic me...

36 QEMSCAN analysis of Green River Formation oil shale samples, Skyline 16 core, eastern Uinta basin, UT2014QEMSCAN; oil shale; Green River Formation; Skyline 16 core; minerologyConclusions in the presentations: 1. QEMscan analysis reveals mineralogic textures dominated by dolomite, illite, and calcite. 2. A few interpretations are made in regards to the documented compositional results generated automatically by the QEMscan: "Background" is assumed to reflect organic matt...

41 West-East core-based cross section through the middle to upper Green River formation, Uinta Basin, Utah - Plate 12014well log; well log cross section; economic oil shale; Mahogany zone; Green River FormationConclusions/observations from west-east cross section: The top of economic oil shale was picked at the top of the lower R-8 zone (top of the Big Three rich oil shale beds). This zone was selected to avoid the abundant saline minerals found in the overlaying saline zone, which often contains high-TDS...
